Forest Park Adult Care Home, operated by Emy and Mark Roady, RN, functions as a residential care home that can handle a wide spectrum of medical needs. The team is equipped to provide wound care, oxygen management, special diet oversight, and diabetic management whether residents use oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale insulin. Support extends to residents under 60 and to individuals living with advanced dementia conditions, ensuring continuity of care as health requirements become more complex.
Registered and licensed practical nurses are on staff, background checks are performed on all employees, and an awake night shift monitors residents around the clock. Staff can give full assistance with bathing, eating, dressing, and toileting. Mobility needs are met through standby supervision, one-person and two-person transfers, walker and wheelchair support, full transfer with a Hoyer lift, and services for residents who are bed-bound.
Private and semi-private rooms come furnished, and some can be painted or decorated to suit personal tastes; not every room offers the same options, so availability should be confirmed during a tour. Cable service and routine housekeeping are available in designated accommodations to help residents maintain comfort without extra effort.
Meals follow a set menu with the flexibility to order alternatives, and staff can provide snacks or in-room dining as needed. Diet modifications include gluten-free, vegetarian, mechanical-chop, puréed, and thickened-liquid preparations to match each resident’s physician-ordered plan and to support safe swallowing and blood-sugar control.
Residents have access to outdoor smoking areas, the property is wheelchair accessible, and internet service is provided for those who wish to stay connected. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed.
